A Newport News family is looking for answers after their seven year old son was urinated on at school...and his clothes weren't changed, or his parents notified, until more than five hours later.

The incident happened at Briarfield Elementary School on Monday. The principal did go to the child's home Tuesday to talk with the family.

A school spokesperson told WAVY News 10 when an incident like this occurs, the child is sent to the nurse's office to get cleaned up and obtain a change of clothes.

In this in this particular case, what happened was "not normal procedure," according to the spokesperson.

Officials say the student that did the urinating has received some disciplinary action.

The school spokesperson says they are still investigating the case.
